Two WWE superstars who have been influential in leading the current women’s revolution are Charlotte Flair and Natalya. Each of these superstars has famous lineage involved in professional wrestling. They also have put on several matches against one another during their history with the company. Fans are now able to recreate those matches as well as new ones with WWE 2K19 gameplay. Nattie and Charlotte each appeared at separate events to speak about or play the new WWE 2K19 game.

Natalya & Tyson Kidd on WWE 2K19 Gameplay

Natalya Neidhart and her husband TJ Wilson (Tyson Kidd) are well known by WWE fans. While Kidd isn’t currently on the WWE’s main roster, Natalya is a fixture in the women’s division. She often helps pass on her veteran knowledge to newer female superstars coming up. When it comes to facing them in the ring, though, she shows no mercy. The couple recently sat down with ET Canada to play a tag team match on WWE 2K19.

Natalya holds an 83 rating in the WWE 2K19 game. She’s the daughter of former WWE/WWF legend Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart who is also featured in the game.  Nattie said she’s “just in awe of how my costume looked and how I moved.” She added “My dad looks badass,” praising how much detail they put into recreating The Anvil’s look.

Plenty of reviews have praised the game for how accurate and true-to-life the various superstars look on the WWE 2K19 roster. The entrances are amazingly close down to every detail of how a superstar moves, yells out trademark sayings or poses on the stage, ramp, and ring.

Charlotte Flair talks about WWE 2K19 Gameplay

Charlotte Flair is also the daughter of a famous superstar, Ric Flair, the record-holder when it comes to title reigns. While Ric is highly accomplished in the wrestling world, Charlotte has really made her own name. She’s captured the NXT Championship, WWE Divas Championship, as well as the Raw and SmackDown Women’s Championship belts during her career.

Charlotte had an interview at the WWE 2K19 event and spoke about the special Wooooo! Collector’s Edition which pays tribute to her father. It includes a number of special bonus items inside such as an exclusive POP Funko, Hall of Fame ring, a piece of one of Flair’s robes he wore to the ring, and more.

Charlotte said she was with her father when he saw what all was included in the special collector’s edition. She said she thinks her father was “blown away” by it and compared it to him being featured on ESPN’s “30 for 30” special.

“The Queen” also spoke about recreating a classic match involving her father and another Hall of Famer, as well as which WWE superstars might be able to defeat AJ Styles playing the game. Dedicated WWE fans may already know the answer to that one.

Charlotte Flair holds an 85 rating in the new game, which is among the best for female superstars. However, it’s still lower than newcomer Ronda Rousey’s 87 rating. There is probably some pride when it comes to the rookie from MMA and the WWE veteran. That could ultimately lead to a real-life dream match involving Charlotte vs. Ronda, possibly at WrestleMania next year?

Either way, fans have the exciting opportunity to create their own realistic Ronda vs. Charlotte matches in the new game. WWE 2K19 is currently available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows PCs.
